SOLD! THANK YOU TO AMBER AUTUMN ALPACAS!!

Where do we even start with this male, in simple words Satin Fever represents generations after generations of proven excellence in huacaya breeding. Making him, in our eyes, a complete package male when you add in his phenotypical looks and fiber characteristics...

Red Granites Sassafras is the dam of this young male. She took top honors as the 2021 TXOLAN Alpaca Spectacular Judges' Choice female winner under AOA judge Arturo Pena, and was also the 2021 Futurity White Female Reserve Color Champion winner under Arturo, once again. But, we love Sassafras for her combination of the best white genetics and the finest color-producing genetics offered in the United States. She is indeed, a direct daughter of Red Granites Val D Lsere, who needs no introduction. Sassafras's dam, the multi-champion (includes two wins at the AOA National Show) Snowmass Heaven's Guardian daughter; Snowmass Heaven's Spice. She carried a histogram test of 20.7, 3.5, 17.1, 0.8, CURV 60.6, SPIN FINENESS 19.5 at nearly six years old (2021). Lingering fineness and uniformity -- this maternal line is one that we favor.

Satin Fever was one of our first Estates Passionate Fever cria born. Passionate Fever has an incredible 14 Championships & 4 Judges' Choice awards to his name, and was purchased at the 2022 Futurity Auction in partnership with Sopris Alpaca Farm & Crescent Moon Ranch in hopes of incorporating new genetic crossing and advancement in the huacaya breed. Passionate Fever is doing just those things. We have been blown away with his offspring and they are even champion winners themselves! Out of Snowmass Pure Passion, a stud with 7 GET-OF-SIRE wins! Snowmass Alpacas said, “Snowmass Pure Passion is the most magnificent Light Fawn Matrix son Snowmass Alpacas has ever produced.” Fever's maternal grandsire is Patagonia’s El Galan, a 4x champion & multiple blue-ribbon winning Herdsire out of Patagonia’s Cayo. His maternal great grandsire R&R Oliver Twist has consistently produced outstanding offspring in Canada and the U.S., that exhibit fine, uniform microns in their fleeces, along with crimp & correct, solid conformation.

Satin Fever is very well grown out for his age, exhibiting great substance of bone and an eye-catching phenotype. It is safe to say that Red Granites Satin Fever is a genetic overload, and certainly has the background behind him to produce only the finest huacaya alpacas that will advance anyone's program!

Color Genotype: ee a2a2 (non-grey)
Red Granites Satin Fever will produce white to true black depending on how he is bred. In addition, he will pass down an "a2" allele to all of his progeny, so they will all cover black.
